Real Madrid and Chivas de Guadalajara will meet at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego on July 20 as part of this summer's World Football Challenge, tournament organizers announced on Wednesday. Madrid is already slated to play the Los Angeles Galaxy in a WFC match at the L.A. Coliseum on July 16.
Reports out of Philadelphia suggest that Chivas and the Galaxy may not be the only opponents for Madrid in the USA this summer, either. The Philadelphia Daily News is reporting that the Philadelphia Union and Real Madrid are in talks for a July 23 friendly that would take place at Lincoln Financial Field and also be a part of the WFC.
One potential hurdle for that friendly is that the Union is scheduled to play the Seattle Sounders that day, meaning the MLS match would have to be rescheduled in order for the Madrid friendly to come to fruition.
What do you think about this development? Plan to go to the match in San Diego? Hope to see the Union get a crack at Real Madrid?
